I have a 1921 Canada Census in my file about, " Lois DODMAN ", that clearly states, mother born in France. I believe Lois learned to speak French from her mother. Lois was the only sibling who could speak English & French fluently.
According to the 1901 Canadian Census Fidena was born in 1867 in Ontario. The 1921 Canadian Census confirms that she was born in Ontario. However, her death certificate and tombstone record the year as 1866. The death certificate also indicates that she was born in Jerseyville, Ontario to Samantha VanSickle and Ezra Wilson.
